Option to become volunteer of some master categories is present on ODP. For instance, take this: http://www.dmoz.org/Regional/Asia/India/Uttar_Pradesh/Districts/ This is a master category, URLs cannot be submitted directly in this category, we have to move further in sub-category. So when we are filling up Editor application form for these categories, Which type of URLs we should submit ? because Practically no URL can be submitted in this category. Editor's suggestion required. username: kingavineshsingh

I apologize if this is not right category to post topic on. Most of the time when we receive an application rejected email, We are given a list of reasons on why our application got rejected ? and are told that there would be one or more possible reason among those reason for decline of our application. If we look at rejection email, we would find a "reviewer's comment" section at the end of email. In this section, the God(Reviewer) can put on his comment regarding why he/she rejected your application. Most of time we get this areas of email blank! and since It is blank we can't find our mistake and improve in that particular area(s). So, I want to know from G…

Username submitted: kingavineshsingh Hello Everyone, I didn't created this thread to check status of my application, Just had some questions. I recently applied for this category: www.dmoz.org/Regional/Asia/India/Uttar_Pradesh/Districts/Jaunpur/ to edit. Actually, I was born in this district and it's my birth place. So, I was guessing that chances to be selected to edit a category which is your birth place is more.(Still, Editors know the best) This category has only 2 submitted URLs. So, I wanted to know from some Editors and some well experience members that What are chances to get selected to edit the category which has 2 URLs, Birth place of mine …

Hi there, I submitted an application in early December and haven't heard back. I signed up with the username of "jamesgamble" and the e-mail address of james -dot- gamble -at- gmail -dot- com. I applied to the following category: http://www.dmoz.org/Computers/Software/System_Management/ I don't remember getting an e-mail asking for me to confirm my e-mail address, so if I'm not confirmed, could I please have the link resent so I can confirm? Thank you. -James Gamble

Help With Reinstatement Application

Hello, I'm hoping someone could help me out with attempting to get my editor account reinstated. Notes on this request: - I was an editor several years ago (like 6 or 7 years). - I don't have access to the email I had used to register, nor do I actually remember what that email was. - My username was likely either balvord or benalvord. - If I remember correctly, I was editing a category for a band named 'Saves the Day' as well as some picture gallery type adult category. - My old account was banned. This was because (again, if I remember correctly) I was removing a bunch of sites which I did not believe met the inclusion guidelines for those picture gallery si…

Hello, I have been editor some years ago. The email address I have used back then has become invalid because I am not working for this company anymore. I tried to get my account re-activated today but I don't remember the password. Using the "Forgot password" function, I can only mail to my old email address of course. Is there any way to change my email address or have my password reset to a default value (account: reikje).

http://www.dmoz.org/Society/Law/Services/Lawyers_and_Law_Firms/Immigration/North_America/United_States/New_York/ name - abukh date - April 6 I first applied to a broader category, got an email 8 horus later that I needed to pick a smaller one, which I did. Also, after I clicked verification email it said "Not a valid key" but that was even before I got the email from one of the editors asking to switch category, so the application might have got through.

Having been rejected three times it seems that DMOZ really don't want my help. I applied for the three towns around me (live near Great Missenden), they form a triangle around me and each time I listed associated websites, I am a webdesigner so I didn't list every one I designed, yet did include my own websites and details of my work which made it very clear. I was rejected first because a site I had chosen for the category had no postal address, okay I am good with that. The second time because the category was too big for a rookie, yes that's fair enough. Finally, because my nearest town kept changing, but there are many towns around me, Aylesbury, Amersham, High Wycom…

I just submitted my application to become a dmoz editor in the the category Computers: Internet: On the Web: Online Communities: Community Management. I got an email asking me to confirm my email address. I'm 99% sure that I clicked the link. My username is christofian. I did not get a follow-up email after I clicked that link. Now, for some reason I can't log into my editor account. When I try to log in, I get the error "User needs an email address verification before the user can login.", which has led me to believe that for some reason my email validation didn't go through, or I accidentally didn't click the link and forgot about it. I was wondering if there is some…
